Do you love your green grass, but wish you had less to maintain or something additional in the landscape to enjoy?  Many homeowners have this feeling but are stuck in the rut of the traditional landscape that is dominated by turf.  The good news is that you can have your cake and eat it too by being intentional about where the turf is and where something else could or should be.
